    Sportlines fitted to the 172

    aye alan we'll get a wee meet arranged soon, aye yozzasport race system next a think (well once a get the damaged fixed where it got hit wi a brick!) ride feels exactly as it was standard, if not better! but when you throw it into a bend its planted, VERY good springs!

    Sportlines fitted to the 172

    Fitted my Eibach Sportlines the other day, all i can say is WOW what a difference for £150!! the ride high has a nice drop, sits the way it should have sat from factory!! handling is nearly on par with my old coilovered car! Just need to get my K-Tec Splitter fitted now when i can be...

    What is this bit of plastic?

    that not the pannel that goes behind the drivers side bit of the front grill? dont remember it having clips like that but might be different on the 172/aircon cars etc

    Induction Kits

    open induction kit such as a cone filter will lose you performance due to it sucking in hot/warm air, even on the smaller engines,no matter how many cold air feeds you give it!! panel filter is the best option, you can use a closed induction kit but wouldnt bother for the price you pay/low...

    horrible nice while turning...

    is it a squeeking? i had a squeeking noise on my old one when i was turning, changed the suspension top mounts for new genuine items and it sorted it

    1.2 16v..do i need an engine cover??

    does the noise only come when you press the accelerator when it sucks in air? dont know what it is but they all do it. no need for the engine cover, my alternator ate mine, when i blew my engine my new one came with a cover so kept it on, a month later the radiator fan ate it lol

    Black Dynamiques with ANY mods.

    Dynamiques are brilliant, i can honestly say on my daily drive i never have the same fun in the 172 i used to have in my coilover'd dynamique. the 172 handles really well and is much faster but theres nothing better than throwing a 1.2 thats about an inch from the ground into a roundabout at...

    Wind Deflectors and Alloys Fitted

    alloys look good but deffo need some 195/45/15 tyres on them! tyres look too chunkey. will look good lowered 60mm

    172 how fast

    it doesnt limiter at 140mph? tom coleman, im taking the piss it wont really do 180mph when its superchipped, infact it wont be any faster lol

    No chavness mod's

    K&N Pannel Filter Stainless Steel Cat back exhaust Decat The above will give a slight power gain but nothing more than 5-8bhp. theres no point doing anymore engine mods than that, the next thing you want to do is sort out the handling and stopping power. if you can stretch to coilovers then...

    they wheels and dampers/springs will be screwing up the handling!

    Wet nos kit on 1.2 16v?

    as edde said 25bhp is a safe ammount but you could probably get away with 50bhp im sure i remember 16v_jon saying he payed £800 for the full kit fitted?

    my colour coded car !

    my old one was lowered 80mm on 16s and was fine :) looks good
  21. Martin_172

    Yay or Nay?

    black doesnt suit the dark blue i dont think, i dont think the mk2 suits 15" wheels unless its really low (which i hate about it, as i HATE any wheels bigger than 15" on clios lol it ruins them)
  22. Martin_172

    Done the hattrick

    nice one mate they look awesome in black with the F1 Cups, id probably have one over my mk2 iceberg actually!
  23. Martin_172

    whats your top speed and acceleration

    rolling roads are a load of balls for power figures, ok for before and after figures i had 2 on my 1.2 one was 83bhp which seemed a bit high and the second was 88bhp which is just plain stupid. i just counted your video and got just over 11 seconds so dont know where your getting 9.9 from?

    172 how fast

    180mph if you get it superchipped, then it really is bad ass

    Slowest car on Cliosport (56k.. i dare you)

    nice car mate, mine was an expression which is similar spec to yours, just a bit better. also had the shity 2 tone interior. i went overboard on mine and fitted full dynamique interior, dashboard, dials, gearknob, carpet, door handles on the inside. then on the outside, dynamique spoiler...

    whats your top speed and acceleration

    hahaha bull s**t my car with a mega run in engine (120k) cat back exhaust, decat, remap, lightned flywheel and pannel and stripped interior would still only manage about 11.5 seconds to 60 (never bothered to time it thats just a rough guess)

    my 1.2 16v took mega abuse untill 130,000 miles before i blew it up. enw engines done 50k (6k by me hammering it) and still feels brand new still the best car for having fun ive had even compaired to the 172. at the end of the day i cant see why ragging a 1.2 makes u look like a tit. when i...
